Studio portrait of Dominick “Don” Rosner. Rosner was born July 30, 1860, in Bridgeport Connecticut; as a young man he attended a trade school to complete his associate’s degree in architecture. After moving to Urbana, OH, he met the Hedges brother and under their urging, moved to Montana in 1884. He first worked on cabins at Nye City, then was hired by Horace Countryman to do finishwork on the Log Hotel. In 1889 he moved to Castle, MT, and built houses in the booming mining community; when he finished four years later, his skills were in high demand, so he moved to Bozeman and designed and helped construct many of the initial frame buildings at the then-agricultural college. He returned to Stillwater County in 1898, working on several building projects in stone. He also homesteaded on Grove Creek west of Absarokee. After selling out and moving to Columbus, he died on October 23, 1945.
